that every one of us has some kind of complex baggage of emotions intellectual you know motivational uh behavioral traits that um it's not just one sort of normal distribution we deviate from it there's so many dimensions that we're kind of hitting the sort of sparseness the the curse of dimensionality where it's actually quite sparsely populated and i don't think you have an average
Yeah, I would say not just the capacity, but the inevitability of diversity.
Basically, it's in our hardware.
We are wired differently from each other.
My siblings and I are completely different.
My kids from each other are completely different.
My wife has, she's like number two of six siblings.
From a distance, they look the same, but then you get to know them, every one of them is completely different.
So what I said in one of our earlier podcasts is that if humans realize that we're 99.9% identical, we would basically stop fighting with each other.
Like we are really one human species and we are so, so similar to each other.
And if you look at the alternative, if you look at the next thing outside humans,

But this doesn't happen in evolution.
In evolution, you layer in additional features on top of old features.
So basically, every single time my cells divide, I'm a yeast.
I'm a unicellular organism.
And then cell division is basically identical.
Every time I breathe in and my lungs expand, I'm basically, you know, like every time my heart beats, I'm a fish.
